The cost of most Barbarian buildings is ~ 200 resources (the Mill being 400 and Camp being 300). Nests are needed to pump out Pegasi, whilst the Altars of Tempest are needed for producing Lightning Hawks and upgrading the Barbarian army. Later on in the game, construction of Altars of Tempest and Nests (upgraded to level 2) are extremely important. The main unit production building is the Camp. Most of the Barbarian buildings cost Gold and Stone. Lightning Hawks can be very useful for dealing with both ground units or buildings, but usually need decent support in Barbarians, Pegasi or some ground units to soak up damage whilst the Lightning Hawks raze the buildings. A Barbarian player with enormous amounts of Gold and Metal may want to consider using a spam of Reavers as well as or instead of Pegasi. They provide a lot of power thanks to their upgrades from the Corral and their crushing damage is very useful against buildings. When it comes to the moment when the Barbarians need to assault an enemy base, the use of Pegasi is almost essential. What is almost unique about the Barbarian cavalry is that they have the view radius of a normal foot unit (most other cavalry units have very restricted view distances). As morale boosts up the army limit, it may be wise to produce some if the resources are available. Warlords can be used later on to buff the entire army with morale boosts. War Dogs are good produces if the Barbarian player has any spare Stone, however, for a great part of the game this is somewhat unlikely. Gold should be a fairly plentiful resource by the time you've got Riders, so most of that gold should be used in upgrading cavalry and pegasi via the Corral. Barbarians and Riders can be massed to defend a Barbarian base or when trying to convert mines. Because of this, it is important to stuff as many Thralls into the Gold, then then the Stone then the Metal mines as possible.Īfter some base construction has been achieved, Metal is one of the most important resources for the Barbarians as nearly all their units use a lot of it. The cost of this research is 200 Gold and 200 Metal, which is a serious drawback to the Barbarians at the start of the game due to their main unit production building costing 200 Gold and 100 Stone. This gives a bonus +10 XP to all newly produced units. An absolutely essential upgrade that must be researched as soon as possible is the Training research. The start of a Barbarian game is a fairly harsh one more often than not. Only have one ranged unit type that can garrison towers, which also causes undesirable side effects to do tower when they do garrison them.No Spellcasters or "interesting" units, as well as a lack of unit types in general, leave the race with very little strategical options.Missile units are very limited and force the race to rely heavily on fliers for aerial counters, especially for Dragons, Daemons and Archons.Units are somewhat weak without upgrades.Deadly and fast general that can devastate larger units (Giants and Minotaur Kings included). Many units boast good speed, allowing a player to use efficient hit-n-run attacks.Great economy that's further aided with the Income / Trade skills and free gold upon destroying enemy buildings.Relatively cheap and fast produced units.Barbarians may not seem like a particularly threatening race, but a flying horde of Morale-boosted, upgraded Pegasi, Lightning Hawks and Reavers may change your mind. The most synergistic hero choices for the Barbarians aren't the best, but can provide a generally easier game when besieging or defending via Morale. However, they are quick to produce, and quite upgradeable. They have a poor selection of units when going on the offensive for most of the game. Barbarians are a fierce, but limited, warrior race.
